Possible LPFP FAILURE?
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com He told me there's an huge part shortage. I just started noticing this THUNK sound coming from my rear floor board and rear seat area. It freaked me out, I thought I was a rod bearing. It's getting loud as heck. Mechanic told me do not drive vehicle any longer until I can get it serviced. Check out the vid and sound. Anyone experience this?

When my LPFP failed it was without warning and left me on the side of the road. Then after trying to turn the car back on it would turn over for ~30 seconds without actually starting.
So maybe, but not what I experienced. |

Yeah my BMW mechanic friend said the same thing cars are getting towed in, he told me stop driving it and call and set up and appointment. He replaced one that wasn't on the recall list under the recall order because when he scanned the car it told him to proceed with the repair.

It's still under warranty ? Mine was FY14 and got it replaced last month.

Yes it's CPO. I'm just hoping they do it under the recall program, I have mods and It would be easier that way. But I can unbolt the mods always too.

Good luck hope they would fix it under recall.

Called today and yes my 8/12 build 2013 MY is under the recall. Never got anything in the mail, but my dealer told me it is and I made an appointment.

It's a shame this keeps happening. My BMW mechanic buddy told me he's super embarrassed for his dealership how many they're changing out .

So just a heads up to all worrying about mods and things of that nature.
